Obsessed… that’s the only word that comes to mind Obsessed… that’s the only word that comes to mind when I look at this shoot…. An Italian inspired intimate wedding at The Flaxmill 
 Dreamy stone walls, soft white draping, delicate florals and the most romantic bridal moments. This Italian-inspired styled shoot was all about timeless elegance, understated luxury and the kind of romance that feels straight out of the Italian countryside. 🇮🇹✨

From the thoughtful little details to the sweeping bridal portraits, every element came together to create something truly beautiful.

A little European romance, a whole lot of magic. 🤍

The first wedding of the season is always somethin The first wedding of the season is always something special, and there couldn’t have been a more beautiful way to kick it off. 🌸

Back in Auckland, surrounded by dreamy cherry blossoms, celebrating two people in love—it felt like the perfect welcome back to wedding season. From the soft pink blooms to the unforgettable moments shared, every part of the day was pure magic.

So excited for all the incredible love stories still to come this season. 💕✨

A little whisky, a wild landscape, and the kind of A little whisky, a wild landscape, and the kind of love that feels like a scene from a film. 🥃

A Scottish twist on a Port Hills engagement session — windswept grass, moody skies, quiet moments and a little whisky shared between two people very much in love.

Nothing too posed. Nothing too perfect. Just the two of them, the landscape, and a story worth remembering.

The Port Hills, with a little bit of Scotland. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

There’s something about a black and white wedding There’s something about a black and white wedding photograph that just hits differently.

Without the distraction of colour, you notice the emotion, the movement, the little details and the moments in between. A glance across the room. The way someone holds their partner. The chaos of the dance floor. A quiet moment before the ceremony.

Black and white images have a timeless quality that makes them feel less tied to a particular season or trend — they become photographs you can look back on years from now and still feel exactly the same moment.

I love using them throughout a wedding gallery alongside colour images. The contrast gives the story a little more depth, and sometimes the simplest frame becomes one of the photographs you treasure most. 🖤

Six weeks in the making… and finally, the weather Six weeks in the making… and finally, the weather played along. 🤍

After postponing and waiting for the right conditions, the stars (and clouds) finally aligned for this surprise proposal at Lake Clearwater.

Snow-covered mountains, a beautiful lake, and one very big question.

Worth the wait? I think so. 🥹🏔️💍
